Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced High School.
"1-D" class.
The two people at the same table were communicating with each other.
"After all, I hope I won't encounter any more bad luck."
"I understand your feelings, but it seems like it's not possible to achieve."
Ayanokōji pointed his finger towards the classroom entrance. Standing there was—
"This classroom is very well-equipped. It seems that the rumors are true after all," said the blond young man who had a dispute with two women on the bus.
"I see, that's really unlucky." Not only us, but even that troubled youth seems to be from the D class as well.
The blonde boy, unaware of the presence here, walked over to the seat with "Koenji" written on it and plopped down. Then, he propped his legs up on the table, took out a nail file from his backpack, hummed a song, and leisurely began to trim his nails.
He is indifferent to the surrounding noise and the gaze of others, doing his own thing.
In less than a few seconds, you can see that more than half of the classmates in the class feel repulsed by Koenji.
After a few minutes, the bell signaling the start of class rang.
Almost simultaneously, a woman in a suit walked into the classroom.
From the outward appearance, he gives the impression of being a very stable and disciplined teacher. He seems to be around the age of maybe over but also maybe not over thirty, in this subtle zone.
And she had what seemed to be quite long hair, tied into a ponytail at the back of her head.
"Um... new students, I am the class advisor for D class, Chabashira Sae."
"I am usually responsible for teaching Japanese history."
"At this school, the classes do not change every school year. Therefore, in the three years before graduation, I will be your class advisor and study together with you. Please guide me."
Chabashira Sae glanced at the time.
"The entrance ceremony will be held in the gymnasium in one hour. Before that, I will distribute the information about the special rules of this school to you. Although, this was already given to you during the previous entrance introduction."
The familiar information from the front seat was the admission notice that had been received after the announcement of exam results.
There was also a high-tech student ID.
"Using the student ID issued now, you can access all the facilities within the school and also purchase goods at stores and other places."
Chabashira Sae picked up a high-tech student ID that looks like a thin smartphone but is as thin as a credit card.
"It is a card-like thing similar to a credit card, but because it consumes points, you need to be careful when using it. There is nothing in the school that cannot be bought with points. As long as it is something owned within the school grounds, you can buy anything."
Anything at all? Then...
Ayanokōji listened to Chabashira Sae and thought for a moment.
The point card that is combined with the student ID means cash within the school.
Because there is no need to carry paper money, it can also prevent money disputes between students.
Or, perhaps it can also monitor students' spending habits by confirming point consumption.
However, in any case, all the points will be provided free of charge by the school.
Free of charge?
"It shouldn't be like this. There must be some hidden rules."
"Just sensing the machine or showing it inside the facility is enough."
"The usage method is very simple, so you shouldn't have any trouble operating it, right?"
Chabashira Sae paused for a moment, as if trying to capture the students' attention.
"Next, the points will be automatically transferred on the first day of each month, and by now, everyone should have been fairly distributed one hundred thousand points. In addition, each point is worth one yen. There should be no need for further explanation at this point."
The words of Chabashira Sae stunned most of the students.
The classroom suddenly became noisy.
"100,000?"
"Is it a scam?"
"Every month!!!"
"Wow! Long live the school!"
Such words were constantly spoken by the students. Even Keihoku Suzune, who was originally seen as "Crime and Punishment," was surprised by the school's actions.
Looking at the student ID in hand.
"Ten thousand yuan, this is really extravagant!"
Ayanokōji agrees with Keihoku Suzune's statement.
In other words, we just entered school and received 100,000 yen in pocket money from the school.
It's really no wonder that it's a large-scale school with close ties to the Japanese government. This is a considerable amount of money for high school students.
It's simply extravagant and unreasonable.
"The school will automatically allocate the required points to all students on the first day of each month."
In other words, the school will issue this payment every month.
How could this not be surprising?
No, she didn't say 100,000 points are issued every month, but rather 'as needed'?
As needed...
To the surprise of the students, Chabashira Sae continued in a plain and unremarkable tone.
"Are you surprised that the school is giving out so many points?"
"This school measures students based on their abilities, and those who are admitted also possess corresponding value and potential. In this regard, the points represent the school's evaluation of you."
"Don't be shy, feel free to use them! However, the school will reclaim these points after you graduate. Since points cannot be converted into cash, there's no benefit in keeping them. Once the points are transferred, it's up to you to decide how to use them. Use them according to your own preferences!"
"If someone thinks there's no need to use the points, they can transfer them to others. But please don't engage in intimidating behavior, as the school is quite sensitive to bullying issues."
In the bewildered classroom, Chabashira Sae looked around at the students.
"It seems like no one has any questions. Well then, I wish you all a wonderful campus life." With that, he walked out of the classroom.
For such a large number like 100,000 points, most students seem unable to hide their surprise and astonishment.
"It seems that this school is not as strict as imagined."
Keihoku Suzune said to the person next to her, Ayanokōji.
"Didn't you hear something in the teacher's words just now?"
"Hmm?"
Keihoku Suzune was stunned by Ayanokōji's words.
"The biggest attraction of this Metropolitan Advanced High School is its nearly 100% college acceptance and employment rate."
"Do you think it's that simple?"
Ayanokōji looked at Keihoku Suzune and, before she could react, he had already decided not to stay any longer and left the classroom.
No one noticed this.
Including the contemplative Keihoku Suzune.
No, that's not right. The one named Karuizawa Kei kept staring at Ayanokōji until he left.
She, who had intended to chase after her, was pulled away by her newly made partner to share the joy.
Keihoku Suzune then picked up the materials that Teacher Chabashira had just handed out again.
Once again, I fell into contemplation.
This school, led by the state, provides thorough guidance and is dedicated to supporting students in achieving their future dreams.
The school has also carried out large-scale publicity on this point.
Among the graduates, there are also many who have become famous because they graduated from this school.
Usually, even the most well-known and excellent schools have a limited number of specialized fields. Either they specialize in sports, music, or computer-related fields.
But here, no matter what field you specialize in, you can make your dreams come true.
This is a school with such a system and high reputation.
Why is it so relaxed? What does that guy really know?
The detailed situation of this school seems to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, full of unclear areas.
Because this school can fulfill wishes, it also makes people feel that there must be some risks involved.
So, in the end...
"Hey! Ayanokoji, do you know..."
Keihoku Suzune looked up at the empty seat where Ayanokoji used to sit.
"......"
At this moment, the students in the classroom began to introduce themselves under the leadership of Yosuke Hirata.
